136. Patricia Blacc - Restaurant Influencer
At a recent media event to promote the Seven Colours Sunday lunches at Marble, Cape Town, I was seated opposite the vivacious and interesting influencer, Patricia Blacc. As a member of a team that was around for the first lunar landing, and once had to hire a projector to watch movies in the comfort of my home, watching her work was fascinating to me. Seeing the polished and very snazzy results of her work on various platforms after the lunch was, frankly, bewildering. While I'm aware of the massive role influencers now play in promoting anything from cars to cuisine, I thought it would make sense to invite Patricia onto the show. It is worth noting that Patricia Blacc is the public persona of the very smart, well-travelled and foodie Reneilwe Sibulela. It was a very enlightening conversation.
